We will notify people in these individual chat threads as they are upgraded. We know people will have questions about how we select and upgrade individual threads, so we wanted to make clear that this is a random process. It\u2019s designed to be random <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">so that there isn\u2019t a negative impact on our infrastructure and people\u2019s chat experience<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. This also ensures our new end-to-end encrypted threads continue to give people the fast, reliable and rich experience on Messenger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Building a secure and resilient end-to-end encrypted service for the billions of messages that are sent on Messenger every day requires careful testing. We\u2019ll provide updates as we continue to make progress towards this goal over the course of 2023.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async defer crossorigin=\"anonymous\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&#038;version=v5.0\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/about.fb.com\/news\/2023\/01\/expanding-features-for-end-to-end-encryption-on-messenger\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today Mark Zuckerberg announced the introduction of some of the features that you love in Messenger to end-to-end encrypted chats, including:\u00a0 Chat themes: We\u2019ve added chat themes to help personalize and enhance your conversations in end-to-end encrypted chats.
